All of this happened within 30 minutes, and two hours later, the plans had been approved and payments had been made. The group was dedicated to Minecraft, with its own Minecraft server and website. The group surpassed his expectations and was one of the popular Minecraft servers on the forum, in the days before [[HackerCraft]] was created. Beacon has caused a huge boost of interest in the Minecraft sections, greatly improving its quality.
